Source Apportionment of Coarse Particulate Matter (PM10) in Yangon, Myanmar. [PDF]
The Republic of the Union of Myanmar is one of many developing countries facing concerns about particulate matter (PM). Previously, a preliminary study of PM2.5 in 2018 suggested that the main source of PM in Yangon, the former capital, was vehicle emissions. However, this suggestion was not supported by any chemical composition data. In this study, to

Determining the Correlation between Particulate Matter PM10 and Meteorological Factors [PDF]
In the article, we point out the need to measure the mass concentration of particulate matter (PM) in central Europe in a place of residence (a city and a small town), as PM has a negative impact on human health, especially that of children and the elderly.

Cytotoxicity of Particulate Matter PM10 Samples from Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. [PDF]
Particulate matter (PM) is one of the main air pollutants with 257,000 deaths per year in Africa. Studying their toxic mechanisms of action could provide a better understanding of their effects on the population health. The objective of this study was to describe the PM10 toxic mechanism of action collected in 3 districts of Ouagadougou. Once per month

Ambient air particulate matter (PM10) satellite monitoring and respiratory health effects assessment. [PDF]
Air particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of 10 µm or less (PM10) is one of the main causes of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). This study explored the relationship between PM10 by remote sensing and AECOPD in Chaharmahal-o-Bakhtiari province from 2014 to2018.PM10 concentrations were predicted and ...

Short-time particulate matter PM10 forecasts using predictive modeling techniques [PDF]
Two types of predictive modeling techniques - seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) and a new Generalized PathSeeker (GPS) Regularized Regression method have been used for modeling data related to ambient air quality. The models are built for the measured data for the primary air pollutant - particulate matter PM10 in the town of ...
